I like the following quotes and remarks from the interview:

The more settled down I am, the more ideas I get for easy ways of making money. I come up with good ways to make money, because I got the pressure off.

When you feel no pressure you get good insights for your business in the direction that you are looking to go.

For example, a life coach will get ideas of networking events or programs they could offer or clients they could reach out at. And that is what I love about the quiet of the shower.

One of the greatest misunderstandings of today is that we think that happiness comes from outside of us. I thought so too for a long time, until I started working on the simplicity project.

If you are creating value, building up relationships, coming up with business ideas and implementing them, you almost can’t help making money.

Stop worrying about everyone else is telling you to do about your business, do what you think is best for your business
